Sheet Pan Gnocchi with Chicken Sausage and Peppers

Sheet Pan Gnocchi with Chicken Sausage and Peppers

This recipe takes sheet pan dinners to a whole new level. While we all love soft, pillowy gnocchi boiled to perfection, did you know that roasting them gives them an irresistibly soft, chewy texture? Combined with savory low-fat chicken sausage, veggies, and a quick arugula salad with roasted garlic dressing, this is one weeknight dinner that you’ll make over and over.
